A recent study definitively refutes Pentagon claims about any “extremism” among members of our military.

From Breitbart. A recently released independent study showed that there was no extremism problem in the United States military, despite the Biden Pentagon making it a top priority to root out alleged extremists.

The study, which was commissioned by the Department of Defense, conducted by the Institute for Defense Analyses, and publicly released just four days before Christmas, “found no evidence that the number of violent extremists in the military is disproportionate” to U.S. society.

The report noted that the Pentagon’s own data showed there were fewer than 100 substantiated cases per year of extremist activity by members of the military in recent years.

However, the Biden administration’s — as well as the establishment media’s — focus on so-called extremism in the military came after some veterans were found to have participated in the January 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol. …

The IDA looked into whether currently-serving troops were among those charged in relation to the events of January 6, 2021 and found fewer than 10 who were charged.

“Of the more than 700 federal cases in which charges were publicly available a year after these events, fewer than ten were for individuals who were serving in the military at the time,” the study said. …

The study also found that there were only 73 veterans out of the more than 700 people charged, and that on average, they were separated from the military for nearly 15 years.

Wall Street Journal editorial board piece noted that the study was a “welcome rebuke to the narrative that the military is a breeding ground for domestic terrorism.” …

Father, there is but one truth, it is your word. There is but one righteous intent, your intent. By your mighty right arm bring the power of intercession for good to bear upon the government and people of this nation. Turn on your light of truth upon all things, people, and organizations that the truth or their ways and agendas no longer be hidden. Reward the just and righteous doers. Drive out the little foxes that have robbed this nation of its fruit and prosperity. Amen

Heavenly Father, I thank You for the service of our men and women in our military. We have asked much of them in defending this nation’s freedom. Many service members have given the ultimate sacrifice for this nation. Many have had their lives changed forever while serving. Please come to their aid and let them know they are highly valued and loved. Please stop any distortion of truth, manipulation by top leadership and abuse of power. Cause selfish actions to be replaced with honor and integrity. Let the voice of truth and reason overshadow all false narratives. Establish justice and righteousness as only You can in this nation. Your scales are our measurement. We praise You and thank You for answered prayer. To You be all glory, honor and power now and forever. In Jesus’ mighty name.

I pray that we the church rise up and be bold. Our military was the best at one time. Government leaders have shook hands with evil agendas and are forcing good military people to do what they know is not right or good. May we the church get a backbone and speak up. People need woke up. Those who have shook hands with the enemy can go to them and back out even if it means death. They are facing God and He wants them on His side or out of commission.
